Completed
Conditions
Carcinoma, Hepatocellular
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04763408
Lead Sponsor
Eisai Inc.
Brief Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to further characterise the hepatotoxicity in participants with advanced or unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treated with lenvatinib, and to further characterise the overall safety profile (serious adverse events \[SAEs\], grade 3 to 5 adverse events \[AEs\], dose modifications and discontinuations due to AEs) in participants with advanced or unresectable HCC treated with lenvatinib.

GroupInterventionDescription
LenvatinibLenvatinibParticipants with advanced or unresectable HCC will initiate treatment with lenvatinib capsules based on physicians decision and will be observed until withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up, death or until the end of the study (up to 7 years) whichever occurs first.
SorafenibSorafenibParticipants with advanced or unresectable HCC will initiate treatment with sorafenib tablets based on physicians decision and will be observed until withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up, death or until the end of the study (up to 7 years) whichever occurs first.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Hepatotoxicity Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) With LenvatinibUp to 7 years
Number of Participants With SAEs With LenvatinibUp to 7 years
Number of Participants With Grade 3 to 5 AEs With LenvatinibUp to 7 years

AEs are defined as undesirable events not present prior to medical treatment, or an already present event that worsens either in intensity or frequency following the treatment with lenvatinib. AEs will be graded using National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE). Here Grade 3: severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self-care activity of daily living, Grade 4: life-threatening consequences; urgent intervention indicated and Grade 5: death related to AEs.

Number of Participants with one or More TEAEs Leading to Dose Modifications and Treatment Discontinuations of LenvatinibUp to 7 years

Number of participants with one or more TEAEs Leading to Dose Modifications and Treatment Discontinuations of Lenvatinib will be collected at the discretion of the treating physician and in accordance with the prescribing information.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Hepatotoxicity TEAEs With SorafenibUp to 7 years
Number of Participants With SAEs With SorafenibUp to 7 years
Number of Participants With Grade 3 to 5 AEs With SorafenibUp to 7 years

AEs are defined as undesirable events not present prior to medical treatment, or an already present event that worsens either in intensity or frequency following the treatment with sorafenib. AEs will be graded using NCI CTCAE. Here Grade 3: severe or medically significant but not immediately life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self-care activity of daily living, Grade 4: life-threatening consequences; urgent intervention indicated and Grade 5: death related to AEs.

Number of Participants with one or More TEAEs Leading to Dose Modifications and Treatment Discontinuations of SorafenibUp to 7 years

Number of participants with one or more TEAEs Leading to Dose Modifications and Treatment Discontinuations of Sorafenib will be collected at the discretion of the treating physician and in accordance with the prescribing information.

Duration of Lenvatinib and Sorafenib TreatmentUp to 7 years
Number of Participants With Dose Interruption and Dose Reduction for LenvatinibUp to 7 years
Relative Dose Intensity of Lenvatinib and SorafenibUp to 7 years

Relative Dose Intensity is defined as the amount of drug administered divided by the total dose specified by the corresponding standard regimen.

Number of Participants With Dose Interruption and Dose Reduction for SorafenibUp to 7 years
Overall Survival (OS) For Lenvatinib and SorafenibUp to 7 years

OS is defined as the time from the start of lenvatinib and sorafenib treatment to date of death from any cause.
